Two more Indo-Canadian politicians have been appointed as ministers in a Cabinet reshuffle in Canada's Ontario province, taking the representation of the community members in the Executive Council to three. Ontario Premier Doug Ford on Friday reshuffled his Cabinet, with former finance minister Rod Phillips - who resigned from his post following a Caribbean vacation during the COVID-19 pandemic - returning as the new minister of long-term care. The reshuffle comes just under a year before next June''s provincial election. In the previous ministry, there was one Indo-Canadian - Prabhmeet Sarkariya, who was the associate minister of small business and red tape reduction.
